Notes "Angles, rules and patterns that give spectacular results..."--Cover.
Summary When we make things or play sport, the rules of maths can help! Find out how artists learned to paint a 3D scene on a 2D surface, about the 180 degree rule for shooting a film, and what gives the beat to music and poetry. Angles and parabolas make the difference between winning or losing a match, and if you're a goalkeeper, you must try to predict how a penalty will be aimed it's all about probability! IT'S A MATHEMATICAL WORLD shows exactly that: maths underlies everything around us on Earth and way out in space. The four books present familiar things and explain the maths behind them, perhaps a pattern, sequence or shape. Clear, simple text works with stunning photographs to make maths fun and approachable. There are activities to try, too!
Target audience note Ages 8-12.
